Free Web NovelChapter 1378: Chapter 1352: Public Apology
Seeing his girlfriend still unhappy, Wang Xiaocong smiled and said, "Okay, after this match, how about I take you to the mall to buy the bag you like?"
The woman finally smiled and nodded with satisfaction, saying, "Alright, I’ll forgive you this time."
Wang Xiaocong wasn’t at all surprised by his girlfriend’s reaction.
As the saying goes, a bag cures all ills.
Ye Chen, having nothing to do, made a phone call to Su Wanyi.
"Darling, what are you busy with?" Ye Chen asked with a smile.
"What else could it be? Obviously work," Su Wanyi said with a helpless expression.
"Hurry up and finish your work. I’ll take you somewhere tonight," Ye Chen said.
"Where are we going?" Su Wanyi asked, puzzled.
Previously, Ye Chen was vague about taking her somewhere, which led to him bringing her to Star Media Company.
Now, Ye Chen said he’d take her to another place, leaving Su Wanyi wondering where he was going this time.
"You’ll know when you get there," Ye Chen replied.
Again, Ye Chen didn’t reveal the destination. Knowing Ye Chen’s personality, she didn’t press further.
"Alright, see you tonight," Su Wanyi said before hanging up the phone.
Right now, she really doesn’t have the mind to think about it. She is more worried about problems with the artists.
Whenever she talked to Ye Chen about it, he would comfort her not to worry, but saying too much might annoy him.
Meanwhile, I’m the Handsomest was like a headless fly, calling this person for help and then that person.
Someone seemed to agree to help him. I’m the Handsomest thought as long as he could solve this issue, he’d have a chance to rise again.
While fantasizing, the person called to say the matter was trickier than expected.
The last hope for I’m the Handsomest shattered with that call.
He never thought the other party would be so formidable, leaving him no room for rectification.
I’m the Handsomest was unwilling to end like this. Even though he relied on wealthy patrons, he still depended on live streaming to earn money.
Now, the patron is gone, and his account is banned. He truly feels cornered.
Suddenly, the phone rang, and I’m the Handsomest saw it was his wife calling.
Before he could speak, the woman on the other end said, "Let’s divorce. What you did was disgraceful. The child and house will be mine. I’ve already found a lawyer. Just sign the divorce agreement. If you don’t agree, we can go to court. But I hope you’d consider the child and not make it difficult."
"Honey, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me. I promise to be devoted to you and the child in the future, and I’ll take good care of you both," I’m the Handsomest cried passionately.
"Forget it. I’ve given you many chances, but you never cherished them. Hope you take care of yourself," the woman said, ending the call without giving I’m the Handsomest another chance to speak.
Holding the phone, I’m the Handsomest stared blankly, never thinking his wife would ask for divorce.
His wife was gentle, always silently crying whenever he did her wrong, never arguing.
But now she wants a divorce, and I’m the Handsomest had placed his last hope in this family.
He thought he was in a terrible situation, but at least he had his wife and child waiting at home. Yet he realized he could never return to that warm haven, and the woman who loved him deeply had abandoned him.
I’m the Handsomest knew he deserved this. Remembering the early struggling days of his career, it was his wife’s constant encouragement that supported him.
Afraid it would affect his work, they hadn’t even had a proper wedding—just a simple meal.
I’m the Handsomest once promised his wife that when he was wealthy, he’d give her a grand wedding, so she wouldn’t hide in the shadows.
Yet, he didn’t fulfill his promise. Instead, he abandoned his loyal wife once he was rich, became indulgent outside, neglecting wife and child, essentially a complete jerk.
Reflecting on his misdeeds, he felt too ashamed to ask for her forgiveness.
"Knock knock." There were knocks at the door.
Opening the door, I’m the Handsomest’s face darkened, guessing correctly who it was—the lawyer hired by his wife.
"Sir, hello. I’m entrusted by your wife to discuss divorce with you," the lawyer said with a smile.
As he spoke, he handed the divorce agreement to I’m the Handsomest.
Without saying a word, I’m the Handsomest signed his name, looking at the contents.
He knew, due to his reckless actions, this marriage was over. As he thought of the joyous times with his wife, regretful tears fell.
"Alright, sir, I won’t disturb you," the lawyer said awkwardly, holding the signed agreement.
This was his first encounter with a client who signed a divorce agreement without even reading it.
Expecting complications, he came prepared with arguments, yet the process was unexpectedly smooth. From entering to leaving, he only said two sentences.
After the lawyer left, I’m the Handsomest wished time could rewind.
If given another chance, he’d treat his wife better, rather give up streaming to be with her, refraining from hurting her.
But time couldn’t turn back, and there was no remedy for regret.
I’m the Handsomest decided to log into an account, naturally his own secondary one.
Turning on the live stream, he bowed deeply to the screen.
"My apologies to the fans who once liked me. I’m sorry for disappointing you with my actions. I truly regret them, and I apologize to my wife and child—I’m really, really sorry," I’m the Handsomest said, crying.
They say men rarely cry, but I’m the Handsomest couldn’t stop.
No matter the fans’ criticisms and insults, he didn’t argue back, only kept apologizing.
I’m the Handsomest knew very well that this apology marked acceptance of his misdeeds, meaning the end of his streaming career.
Suddenly, Ye Chen’s phone rang. Checking, he saw it was Wang Xiaocong calling.
"Brother Chen, quickly check the live stream. That streamer made a public apology. What triggered it?" Wang Xiaocong said with a laugh.
Ye Chen also opened his phone, seeing I’m the Handsomest apologizing live—it surprised him.
